vol4 inaban is the most dere dere. thought the vol 2 one might cause a lot of people to dislike her cause of her cold attitude.

I assumed it's because of Heartseed's phenomenon of causing them to act out on their desires without inhibition? Like Yui going all out on the attack or Taichi going all out to sacrifice himself to save people... I suppose Inaba's inability to fully trust people would be kick into overdrive.

I'm still on v6 right now (very slowly but progressing.) I'd say we haven't seen the last of Dere-ban yet... baka-couple
I'm expecting a lot of hate from shippers and dere-haters
But to be fair... her "cold attitude" is nothing compare to certain someone in vol.4... I mean, that one is... ouch!

I thought she was doing it to prevent herself from hurting others with her own feelings, then again I guess it's part of her trust problem, except it's not that she doesn't trust the others. She doesn't trust herself. Self-loathing overdrive for sure. She just needs a hug from everybody.

Actually I *think* it should be safe to post that on the Anime thread, since the scene with the bridge was already shown... Other than that were there any other spoilers ?

Ehhh, I think it's pretty spoiler-ish in terms of pairings. We all know how shippers are very sensitive about those kinds of information. Better safe than sorry.

The shipping war would kick into full drive and people would start throwing mud at each other.... Best to keep your head clear and out of the way.

You probably have a better grasp of the situation than me

Fair enough. They seem to be extremely paranoid about what is a spoiler so yeah that might just have the reverse effect.

Ehhh, don't remind me
I was hoping KC threads to be a safe heaven from the flame war in SAO threads... apparently that will soon not be the case... OTZ

I could be reading into it too much, but I think the title of v2 ties in very well with Inaban's character. Wounds and scar, "Imperfection", Gou-san (the real one, not possessed by Trollseed) puts it very well: Friends hurt each other, it's part of being friends as humans are not perfect. And that's what Inaban will come to learn.

For better or worse Kokoro Connect has attracted the attention of a sizeable Anime fanbase... At least among the English speaking communities. You've already seen how they would dig really deep into the analysis of the show from just those last 3 episodes.

Imagine turning all of that power and focusing it on character pairings? It's going to get downright nasty.

It does seem to be a Inaba focused volume... Heck I get the feeling Yui and Aoki would be brushed aside again in the eyes of the Anime fans...

To be fair, Yui-Aoki did get their fair share of development this arc. I'd say it's a 50-50 split? Although I'm not sure if people will buy Aoki's development as the "live free as I am" type seems to be rather under-appreciated in the western fanbase. Even Trollseed sees him as one of the more "boring" character. Most people I've read expected everybody to have some sort of trauma antics. At least Taichi won't be running around saving girls this time.

The moment I saw its reception over at my coast, I can't help but predict that... Same goes to... uh, SAO. I guess there had to be something in SAO I can't get myself to like and they do... while on the other hand, dismissed the Oda Nobuna series before they can get started.

Meanwhile, I continue to follow this series because, maybe, I and Heartseed are not so different, we enjoy these stuff happening for the lulz
